I could not be any happier with Dr. Bea. I left our visit feeling very hopeful. He is a great listener and carefully answers questions. His caring comes through and his assessments were right on! I might add that he was very highly recommended to me by my primary care doctor...I see why! I am most happy and think Dr. Bea will be the right person to help me with my overwhelming anxiety.
